Tragedy struck in Hyderabad when a retaining wall at an under-construction apartment collapsed due to heavy rains, claiming the lives of seven individuals, including a four-year-old child. The incident, which took place on Tuesday evening in the Bachupally area, left the entire community in shock and mourning.
According to the Bachupally police, the victims were migrant workers from Odisha and Chhattisgarh. Their bodies were recovered the following morning, with the help of an excavator, from under the debris. It was a heart-wrenching scene as rescue teams worked tirelessly to bring out the lifeless bodies of these hardworking individuals.
The heavy rain, which continued to pour down on Tuesday, wreaked havoc in several parts of Telangana, including the city of Hyderabad.

Their swift response and efficient coordination helped to alleviate the situation and provide relief to the affected areas.
The loss of lives in this tragic incident serves as a reminder of the importance of taking necessary precautions during extreme weather conditions. Our hearts go out to the families and loved ones of the victims, and we hope for their strength and healing during this difficult time.
